Merge proposal

There seems little in the new article which is not more thoroughly covered in this one. PamD (talk) 16:10, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Which one??? Andrewjlockley (talk) 23:24, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Assuming you mean oxygenation (environmental), there's a much better one for that to merge with: oxygen saturation. Andrewjlockley (talk) 23:28, 15 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why was this moved?

The subject "water aeration" is used extensively (Google,scholar) - while the title "water oxygenation" is almost unused in comparison (Google,Scholar). Was there any discussion on this, which didn't survive the move? --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 22:25, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've cut all the speculative (and i do mean speculative here, since it seems to be based on very limited references) geoengineering stuff, for both being WP:OR and extremely undue weight to a few (very few (<10)) researchers work - which AJL just seems to have reinserted here, since Hydraulic geoengineering was to be (and now is) AfD'd. --Kim D. Petersen (talk) 22:29, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Water oxygenation would encompass processes that don't involve air insertion. However, if aeration is the more common term I suggest moving it back. Andrewjlockley (talk) 00:55, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
